While its true that youre flexible about most things, there are some activities or elements of your schedule that you regard as sacred, and so wont even discuss changing. But now you must, or face serious difficulties because of changes in circumstances themselves. Sometimes a gentle hint that youve no interest in pursuing plans is enough for most people. But one particular individual is so persistent that theyre oblivious to any such subtle messages. Youll need to be blunt, and youll probably have to make your views known to them more than once. By now youre starting to realise that recent frank exchanges, which you assumed had cleared up certain tricky issues, were only the beginning. The problem is, these are more complex than you thought. Getting to the bottom of them will require time, persistence and a willingness to delve into issues youve been avoiding. Of the 12 signs, Capricorns and Scorpios are most adept at handling complex power struggles. But even youve been having difficulty with the underhand manoeuvres of certain individuals. Be patient. Their strategy is to rush you. However, soon theyll slip, and you can regain control. If you managed to avoid recent, rather bitter disputes that broke out between those around you, then youll have clear sailing ahead. However, you probably couldnt avoid getting involved in some element of these disputes, and so are urged to tidy up any misunderstandings before they become more serious. While youre justified in feeling upset about persistent problems in one particularly demanding relationship, thats only making it worse. Stop discussing how bad things are with those who simply agree. Instead, talk over the situation with those wholl actually help you find a solution. Only days ago you were listing the reasons why you simply couldnt go along with the rather exotic ventures others were suggesting. Since then youve learned more, and youve become intrigued. You should be. You may not recognise how good these plans are until youre actually involved. Usually youre the first to encourage others to explore various options and debate their worth before decisions are made. But things are moving too swiftly for that. This not only means cutting any exchanges of ideas short, you must also adopt an uncharacteristically autocratic approach to the decision-making process. You dislike it when others are heavy-handed with you, so you try to avoid dealing with them in an unsympathetic manner. But the clash between Mars, newly arrived in your sign, and the uncompromising Pluto indicates that, however upsetting it might be, you have to tell it like it is. On those occasions when you know you have right on your side, youre not only fearless, you seem to have access to resources and an awareness beyond your usual capacities. This is the case now. Others may be anxious about your stance and the accompanying risks. But from your perspective, youve no choice. When you first became involved in certain plans, they seemed as exciting as they were promising. But since then youve learned more about the people and arrangements in question and your enthusiasm has cooled. Yet others are urging you to remain involved. This would only delay your inevitable parting. Answer:sum-anther-math-hiss(actressSamanthaMathis) No 625 ACROSS 4. Allure (7) 8. Required (6) 9. Projectile (7) 10. Look at (6) 11. Really (6) 12.
